chances to go to Sing Siug aud work
for a living such as it is. His trial
began on Monday aud if the court
pursues a similar course to the forego

TURNING OUT Democratic clerks is
all the go now at the state depart
ment in Harrisburg. Three ot Gov.
Pattison's clerks got their dismissals
and others will have to follow as soon
as Republicans can be found to fill the
places satisfactorily. But Pennsylva
nia is under Republican rule and the
Democrats will have to ''walk."
WAR between France aud Germany
seems inevitable. All indications
point to hostilities between these two
countries which may break out iu op
en battle any time next summer. The
dispatches to the press of this country
report unusual activity at all the
arsenals and the French seem very
sanguine about getting Aisace and
Loraine back into their possession and
have a bitter feeling against anything
German.
THE chairmanship of the Democrat
ic State Committee changed hands at
the meeting of the committee in Ilar
risburg last Wednesday. Mr. Ilensel,
who retired, has filled that position
very creditably, considering the disad
vantages under which a democratic
chairman labors in this state. He has
always shown a bold front and never
lost hope.
Mr. Dallas Sanders,of Philadelphia,
his successor, is said to be an active
and faithful democrat, and it is be
lieved that he will make a good lead
er for the party.
GOVERNOR BEAVER has met with a
sad bereavement since he entered the
high office of chief magistrate of
this Commonwealth, in the death of
his three-year-old son, James A.,
which occurred on Saturday night.
The child had suffered but a brief
spell from that dreaded malady, dip
theria. James was the pet of the
family and was an unusually bright
child for his age. The mother U al
most prostrated by grief and the
many friends of tte afflicted family
received the news with sadness and
telegrams of condolence were received
at the executive mansion from all
parts of the state.
THE list of the Docemratic County
Committee for 188*7 appears at the
head of this column. In glancing
over the names it must strike an ob
servant mind that the chairman, Mr,
Jas. A. McClain, selected bis assist
ants with circumspection and good
judgement Most of the committee
men at this end of the county are
young and active Democrats who will
take a lively interest in the welfare
and success of their party in the coun
ty. Led by as energetic a chairman
as we know Mr. McClain will be the
organization of the Democratic forces
of Centre county cannot fail to be
thorough and effective.
THE Harrisburg Patriot in com
menting editorially upon the death of
Governor Beayer's little son, says
there are suspicions that something
must be radically wrong in the venti
lation or drainage of the executive
mansion. It calls attention to it that
one ot Governor Hoyt's children was
brought to death's door by the same
dangerous disease, while Governor
Pattigon lost a fine boy by diptheria
shortly after his occupancy of the
house. A speedy investigation of the
surroundings of the building and a re
moval of the unhealthful influences, if
such exist, is recommended, and it is
natural that the people of this state
feel the greatest concern for the pres
ervation of the health of the chief
magistrates families, and urge that
if there are any disorders about those
premises it should be remedied at once.
WHEN is the general settlement day
for state business ? is a question very
frequently asked and one rather hard
to correctly answer, says the Patriot,
The fact of the matter is that under
the financial system now in vogue
there is no time in the year when the
commonwealth can properly balance
its financial affairs. The fiscal year
ends November 30, the appropriation
year ends June 30. Licenses are re
turnable quarterly on the first days
of April, July, October and January,
and corporations make report of taxes
to the first Monday of November.
Under such an arrangement as this?
how can it bo expected that a balance
sheet shall be made up showing ex
clusively the business of any one year
in all departments of revenue and ex
penditure ?
There may exist good reasons why
the returns of licenses and corporation
taxes should be made at the time
specified, but there certainly is no val
id reason why the fiscal year and the
appropriation year should not be made
to conform.
HON. LEONARD RHONE, from this
county, introduced an important bill
in the House of Representatives with
the view of equalizing taxation in
Pennsylvania. The bill is entitled
"an act amendatory of the several
acts relating to the assessment and
valuation of real, personal and corpo
rate property for the purposes of tax
ation." The act provides that assess
ors shall in April assess all real estate
and visible personal propertj at actual
cash value, including bonds,mortgages,
notes, bills and every other evidence of
debt-bearing interest and due fioin sol
vent debtors, except only the property
exempted by the first section of the
ninth article of the State Constitution.
The property of piivate corporations
included shall be such only as owned
by them otherwise than strictly and
exclusively for corporate purposes in
conducting the authorized business of
the company and not clearly represent
ed by its taxed corporate stock and
shares.
One section provides that every tax
able person or corporation shall furnish
the assessors a written statement of all
taxable property. Every evidence of
debt not so reported shall be uncollect
able by suit and interest thereon for
feited. Assessors shall state in the as
sessment books the amount secured by
dower, mortgage, judgement, giound
rent or charge, upon the premises of
any taxable i>erson, firm, association or
corporation and deduct the same from
the valuation of the encumbered prop
erty, provided said taxable person,linn,
association or corporation shall pay the
yearly amount of tax upon such dower,
mortgage, judgement or charge to the
collector of the tax, which amount the
said taxable person, firm, association or
corporation shall be entitled to offset
as payment for interest or principal
upon said dower, mortgage, judgement,
ground rent or charge. License taxes
upou wholesale and retail venders of
merchandise are repealed. The Audit
or General and State Treasurer shall
annually fix the tax rate upon the capi
tal stock and shares of private corpora
tions subject to tax.

RISING RIVERS.
Tho Schuylkill and tho Suequohan
mi Up at tho Ico Gorges.
READING, January 24.—Owing to
last night's rain all small streams in
this vicinity and the Schuylkill riycr
have risen. The ice in the river broke
this morning and a monster gorge
formed near Slioemakersville, above
Heading. The ice is packed solidly ten
and fifteen feet high the entire width
of the liver for several miles and the
water being unable to follow the course
of tho river is now being driven back
and flows over Hit surroundingcountry,
many acres being under water. Many
fences have been carried away and
some live stock diowned*
LOCK HAVEN, January 21—Tele
grams* from up river districts state
that the ice in the Susquehanna is
breaking and gorging at different
places, the nearest gorge being at West
port, thirty miles west of this city.
No fears are entertained here, as the
river is not high enough to do any
great damage.
The Microscopical Society of West
Chester has been at considerable pains
to collect and publish the opinions of
eminent scientific authorities as to the
usefulness of the law offering a prem
ium for the destruction of hawks, owl*,
minks and weasels, and there is a de.
cideil unanimity in favor of repeal.
Ornithologist Merriam, of the Depart
ment of Agriculture at Washington,
ranks both hawks and owls among the
best friends of the farmer, and says
that instead of a bounty there should
oe a tine for their slaughter, siuee they
consume mice and insects on a large
scale. Curator Ridgway, of the Bird
Department of the Smithsonian Insti
tution, confirms this view* and other
scientists concur in it. One is tempted
lo wonder, in view of the facts, how
such a law ever cauie to be enacted by
the Legislature, until it is remembered
that the members knew that they did
not know* anything about it and sup
posed that their farmer constituents
were better informed. The fanners
are now frankly admitting that they
were mistaken and demanding the re
peal of the law. There is no doubt
now that it should be repealed and al
lowed to stay repealed.— Phihi. Tones.
Resolutions of Px*cgiess Grange.
The follow ing resolutions were passed
at a meeting of the Progress Grange, at
Centre Hall, at a meeting held on Jan
uary 22:
WHEREAS, Many newspapers in
oonsijeratidy urge and advocate upon
Congress the placing ot agricultural
raw products on the free list for the
benefit of the manufacturers or these
products for whom they would retain
the highest protection from foreign
competition which policy, if it were
adopted, would still further diminish
the value of our already depreciated
farm products oy many millions of dol
lars without a corresponding reduction
in the prices of manufactures, which
would he a gross injustice to tlie far
nieis of our country, and lead to bank
ruptcy and ruin, therefore,
Resolved, That we enter o.:r protest
against Congress placing agricultural
products on the free iist so long as the
manufacturers are given the benefit of
protection; and that we also protest
ajainst any policy by the press that
discriminates against agriculture in
favor of manufactures and ask our far
mers to withdraw their support and
patronage from all periodicals and pa
pers that will thus manifestly injure
our industry.
Resolved, That we favor such legis
lation by the State and National Legis
lature that w ill protect all our indus
tries alike and develop them to the
highest perfection and bring the great
est remuneration and comforts to those
engagtd in them.
A Big Steal of Hogs.
CHICAGO, Jan. 21.—A case of hog
stealing on a grand scale, said to ha\e
been carried on for the past two years,
came to light yesterday by the arrest of
Dennis McGurl, proprietor of a soap
factory, his son, and five employes,who
are alleged to have done the work. It
is claimed that during that time no less
than 3,500 hogs have been taken from
the train of the Chicago and North
western Road, aggregating in yalue be
tween SIB,OOO and $20,000.
1 he plan of the robbery was to board
a Stock train at a i ail road crossing or
other stopping point and, entering one
of the cars, remain there until the train
was under headway. Opening the door
of the car, three or four hogs could be
thrown off in short order and unobserv
ed and the thieves would themselves
alight. The country through which
the road passes op fhp western out
skirts of the city is so deseited that the
scheme was never exposed until the de
tectives had worked upon the case for
some time. Finally suspicion settled
on McGurl ana his men. People in the
neighborhood of the factory began to
suspect that the proprietor was getting
rich top fast. McGurl lias been doing
a thriving business, supplying the large
hotels with great quantities of soap
which, it is now charged, was made
from the stolen hogs.

HARRIS BURG 21. —Samuel Matt
Fridy.t'or many years clerk in the olllce
ot the Secretary of the Commonwealth
and later Prothonotary of Lancaster
county, will probably be the next I>p
uty Serietary of the Commonwealth.
The position was offered him a lew
days ago and it is understood he has ac
cepted.
Ex-Adjutant General Guthrie left for
Pittsburg to-day, satisfied that he
would not be appointed commander of
the Second Brigade National Guard,
formerly commanded by General Reav
er. Colonel John A. Wily, of Venan
iro county, is to have the place.
Captain Thomas P. Moloney, Super
intendent of the State Arsenal, is to Lo
retained on account of his elllcieucy.
Robert SnoJgrass, of this city, will
probably consent to serve as Deputy
Attorney General under Attorney Gen
eral Kirk pat rick.
In connection with the bill appropri
ating SBI,OOO to erect memorial tablets
to maik the positions of the eighty-one
Pennsylvania regiments in the battle
of Gettysburg 011 the Ist, 2nd and ,'bd
of July, lsti.l, an effort is being m ide to
have a commission created to disburse
the money. The soldiers who are press
ing the appropriation are opposed to
the proposed commission because no
necessity exists for its creation.
Governor Reaver is kept busy listen
ing to personal appeals for office and
reading letters of similar import. A
bout two thousand persons have thxs
far indicated their wil'ingness to till
the lifty positions in the gift of the new
administration. The letters addressed
to the Governor since he assumed the
duties ot his offue have become so nu
merous that Private Secretary Pearson
has been obliged to employ a short
hand writer to answer the com nunic a
tions, most of which are from anpli.
cmts for office or friends representing
them.

]\'hat we wish to say to our customers is this : That we are going to
sell cheaper than ever If/ore.
WHY ?
First—J because this is a dull season in general. But we are going
to make it lively l>y selling goods icay down and selling much.
Second —Because we % have a big supply of winter goods on band,
that must be sold in order to make room for a spring stock.
Third —Because ice can afford better to sell winter goods cheap than
carry them over the saason.
Fourth—Because ire have the "Swing" and are bound to keep it.
REMEMBER!
We hare anything from a needle to a hogshead of molasses—a good
Sewing Machine or a house and lot.
